Team-BHP Official Gear : Hoodies & Jackets (v3.0)!

This is a discussion on Team-BHP Official Gear : Hoodies & Jackets (v3.0)! within Announcements, part of the Team-BHP category; Got myself a V8 from the lot, can't wait now!
I saw the 2014 hoodies too, by any chance is ...

Rehaan,
When is the first batch expected to roll out? I was thinking of ordering one for dad since he was wanting to buy a jacket. Since he does not prefer a hoodie, this time the TBHP jacket would be a good buy for him. Hence, if I can show him the product before I order, it would be nice so that he can get a feel of it. I hope the jackets dont run out of stock by the time I get mine delivered.

Well, good news... Prints of the first batch (any order number < #200026617) have started

They should ship out early next week.

Note: M A Y A N K has spaces between letters, that's why it looks like this.

If he's a M or L (or even XL) you should be fine. Other sizes I can't guarantee, but I think you'll be ok.

To get a bit technical here:

Sharing an RGB code is not an accurate way, simply because every screen represents the same code differently.

The way around that is to have a high-quality screen AND get it colour-calibrated using a special piece of hardware. You need to re-do this every 3-months or so to keep your monitor's calibration from shifting.

This is what most professional artists/designers do (i hope), so that when things go from digital to print, there is minimal variance.

The better way to do things is to use a Pantone shade. There are Pantone books, which are books that look kind of like a shade card, but they are printed in extremely controlled conditions (everything from the dyes/inks to the kind of paper used, etc) so that every single copy of the book is the same and therefore can be cross-referenced accurately.

These Pantone books fade too, and that's why you're supposed to replace them every X months/years. However, they aren't cheap - even a small one costs ~ Rs. 15,000.

They even have different pantones for the type of paper, type of paper coating, type of material, etc.

Hey guys what fantastic looking hoodies. I'm drooling over the grey color looks really premium.
I just bought the Personalised Team-BHP Hoodie (Anthracite Grey) with my TBHP handle and will wear it proudly.
I'm sailing out in a few days and desperately hoping it comes soon
